Wtf is the 3rd episode! Clive's heaven sounds like my hell. This had been the first episode I've had to stop and back away from. I honestly feel horrified, fuck this hyper capitalist world.
I have began to play Dead by Daylight and I love this funky lil survivor
Also, random thought
They're able to hold off death but not fix Clive's leg.
They're able to delay death but yet not improve people's quality of life.
The whole point is to hold off death till someone cures you but that's not happening. The world in RV is a shit show. People are wanting to sleep though the end of the world but yet no one to fix it.
From my own experience of science and medicine, everyone wants short and quick fixes but long term solutions are unobtainable because no one wants to wait 10 to 20 years for results.
"someone else will fix it"
I'll be in denial, for at least a little while. What about the plans we made? My first proper illustration in like two months lol, I hope this makes someone cry! ^_^
His wife is a social worker and is the nicest woman you've ever met.
They both met in university.
Clive was doing some dumb uni degree, like English or psychology.
I think his wife was probably like a mean girl in secondary school, but has tried to make amends with everyone she hurt.
If his daughter asks for something in the shop he'll always say no, but is constantly giving her gifts.
When his wife was pregnant he had nesting syndrome, and would spend hours just decorating and cleaning and dalting after his wife.
Clive either really likes football (like every single match for his team) or violently hates it.
Clive smashes a phone every month.
When he's drunk he vents to his wife about his work.
He wife knows what he does but believes it's for the greater good.
They never acknowledge his work when they're sober.
He owns some of the most tacky designer stuff you've ever seen.
He shops at sports direct.
They live in one of those generic new builds.
Does their weekly shop at Tesco because they want the club card points. It is also the only place locally that sells tahini.
I will not be taking any criticism at this time ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Being a tma fan in Britain is wild a statement will start and you'll be like "oh shit that's in my city I've been to that place before!" and then it'll go on to describe something that fills you with a terror you feel all the way to your bones and suddenly you don't wanna go there anymore actually
I am gutted to learn that biomedical scientists are not AHP. Like bro we are responsible for 80% of all heath decisions, all the other AHP are just doing our bidding.
I know Humans is a dead show with a very lacklustre final few seasons.
I have a lot of thoughts I want to share, I watch the original Swedish(?) production and there was some of the things I wish I brought over but I do think the British version is significantly better.
I do wish they had a default model, in the Swedish show they showed that there was a default model that was basically meant for manual labour that lacked a lot of capacity.
Also when the family were looking for answers in the original Swedish version they go back to the seller and they've got a model that has a life narrative, when they check it out they realise the life narrative is superficial and is near enough just like fanfiction.
The things I like about the British version is that there's a lot more talk about mods. Also Dr Milligan keeping his original D series synth is very interesting and accurate to how people treat rumbas. (I myself have a robot vacuum that I will die for even though it keeps eating my knickers)
Dr Mulligan is overall a very interesting character but his new synthetic feels very accurate to the healthcare assistant but also doesn't think he would have qualified for 24 hours support. I would see it be more accurate having a synth for maybe 12 hours a day and then the synth would go somewhere else, that's a very minor complaint though. I also feel bad for the GPs, imagine having to deal with hundreds of requests from synthetics asking if it's ok to move a bed. (I think the implication that the GPs are also synths)
I also find the addition of the pretend synth subculture very interesting. As someone who's definitely a little bit neurodivergent I never felt so seen, The idea is pretending to be a robot and not having to deal with conversations just doing what you need to do without having to partake in society sounds like a dream to me.
I do think the first season of this show is really amazing, there are some questionable moments but could be a lot worse.
